“I’m Not Gay”: Working with Men Who Have Sex with Men but Identify as Heterosexual

 

Robert Schout, LMSW 5.5 CEUs

There are men who are gay, men who are straight, men who are bisexual and then there are men who have sex with men but self-identify as heterosexual. For helping professionals, who are trained to be non-judgmental, yet also to categorize clients for reporting and diagnostic reasons, working with men who have sex with me can be challenging. This client population can trigger a therapists own personal biased beliefs while forcing the professional to constantly remain in non-judgmental mode. This seminar will help professionals understand this client’s population more fully, how to address their own prejudgments, and how to help MSM clients reconcile disparate self- identities.
